The golden age of the individual construction of special bodies ended sometime in the sixties, but the Hooper company surprised everyone in the mid-eighties with new variants of Rolls-Royce and Bentley models. One of these was the Empress II, which was based on the Bentley Turbo RL. Five examples were built, one of which is portrayed in this report.
The Turbo version based on the Mulsanne saloon launched a success story for Bentley in 1982, which ultimately led to the fastest model in the series, the Turbo S from 1994/1995. Despite increasing performance and sporty chassis, the saloons remained suitable for everyday use and desirable. This has not changed to this day. This driving report focuses on the rare Bentley Turbo S, but covers the entire model evolution from the Mulsanne Turbo to the Turbo RT.
